PLUCK OF A GRIZZLY.

| How Two Of Them Wero Brought Down By
Experienced Hunters.
We stalked two small grizzlies in the
"open" one evening. They were busy
turning over stones. in order TO get tho
grubs and worms underneath. and
when we managed to get, unseen.
within forty yards. at first fire each re-
ceived bullet brOadside behind the
shoulder; but. seemingly none the
worse. they both turned down hill. as
bears will when wounded. nine times
out of ten. and made for the ravinc,
whence they had evidently come.
This gave me nice open shot rs
they passed, and No. l rolled over
dead; not so No. 2. Before he got
q hundred yards away l hit him three
times. My rifle was 5O-caliber Bull
lard repeater. the one have used for
,ears-100 grains Of powder and a
solid ball. At the fourth shot he fell
all of heap. seemingly dead. To save
trouble we laid hold of the first one.
which lay about seventy yards above
the second. and dragged him down the
steep incline to where this second lay.
for convenience in SHINING. We got
within few feet of the bear, when up
he jumped. and. one hind leg and one
fore. went for Frank. The attack was
tremendously unexpected and sudden.
At glance you could see that tho
poor, plucky brute was past
hurting any one. for ono arm
was smashed and his lower
jaw was shot almost completely
away. Yet tell the simple truth
when I say that for . few strides he
actually caught up to Frank. who
made most admira BILE time; then he
suddenly fell dead. We examined
that bear carefully; he was . small
one. not weighing moro than two
hundred pounds, and was shot all to
pieces Each of the FIVE bullets had
fired had struck him; one hip and one
forearm were broken, the lower jaw
shot away; there was one shot in the
neck. and one. through and through.
behind the shoulder. It is never safe
to fool with grizzly; he may run
away as fast as xn elk, or he may not,
He msC drop to the first wellplanted
bullet or he may stand up till blown
almost to pieces -Scri6ners NagosisG

south. II. on the contrary, we con-
slider that the Aryan conquerors OF
India came clearly from the north
along the rivers of the Punjab. while
before that time they must have dwelt
for certain period together with the
people who became the founders Of the
first European dialects, we find it diff
cult to resist the conviction that some
halfway point from which the north
western and southeastern tribes could
have diverged may mark the original
home of the Aryans.-Nar Muller. IN

"A little daughter Of William Cur.
rem. Of Mink Hollow. which is in tho
Catskill Mountaina was picking ber-
ries. on Wednesday. when . bear
popped out Of the bushes and seized
her. She called for help and tho
house dog ran to her and pitched into
the bear. and the little girl was
enabled to get away and run home.
A bear hunt was organized, and tho
dog was found half mile from the
scene Of the attack. bleeding freely.
The bear got away.

ccssion, announcing the crime for
which the man is being punished. His
friends are allowed to follow and pro-
test his innocence and bewail his sad
fate, but as the punishment is usually
visited upon the family if the treason
has been glaring, the following Of
friends is apt to he rather small.
There are two places of execution ut
the capital. One, seldom used, is in
the city. while the chief place is just
outside the west gate, on a hillside,
where the immense crowds upon the
city wall and other high places can get
good view of the interesting sight.
Whether the prisoner, in his exhausted
state, has succumbed to the torture of
the cross or not, on arriving at the
place of execution he is placed face
downward, with hi. neck upon block.
when, by one stroke, if it is good
one, the heavy sword sewers the head
from the body. The hands and feet
are then cut off. and the mutilated
body is carried back into the city and
laid, chest downward. in one of tho
streets. where it must lay for three
days.
1t should be mentioned that the hui
name King is opposed to this practice,
which custom seems still to demand.
In case the accuser should be proved
an imposter and to have accused the
man falsely. the prisoner or his friends
have the right to demand an eye from
him. Their method of obtaining the
organ is quite novel, and if well per
formed it is more expeditions than il
the modern surgical method of eneucle-
alton. The culrr;t is made to stoop
over. and is then hit with the loaded
end of a flexible stick upon . spot ON
the back of the head. when the eye
protrudes sufficiently that it may be
cut of. If. however. the people who
wish the eye are not prompt in doing
the cutting operation, the prisoner may
quickly replace the eye and possess il
thereafter in place. all of which is said
to have been done many times, but
unfortunately. has not been witnessed.

ONLY CHANCE TO SEE Jo-Jo

Those who have a desire to see
the wonderful "Jo-Jo" should avail
themselves of the opportunity offer

renew the document.

THE TRIBUNE.
A GARBbED REPORT.

In giving the report of the
grand jury, the Boise City papers,
for some mysterious reason, leave
out a very important clause. Just
how it comes that the papers up
there can pick out and publish that
which s'seems good in,their eyes"
of public report, and utterly ig-
more other portions of it, has never
yet been fully explained, and we
should think that the grand jury
would feel highly fattered to see
their official report appear, twisted
around to suit matters and things
IN Boise City. The portion of the
report that they have seen fit to
omit this time is of Importance to
every tax payer in the county, as
it is relative to our county poor
farm. The rejected clause is in
substance as follows:
We have examined the poor farm |
and find it well managed generally,
but object to the management of I
the medical department, and rec
commend to the county commits
sioners to remove DR.. e. Smith and
appoint some medical man in his
place.
When the grand jury, after
thorough examination, submits
report of that kind, it is evident to
the average mind that there is a
screw loose somewhere, and when
an attempt at concealment is made
it leaves no room for a doubt. THE ,
TRIBUNE is not asleep if it is lit j
lie ways from the field of action, {
md it knows of several loose
'crews at the county seat that it is
ia BILE to tighten up a little at any
ime.
